Previous, however, to entering into the hallowed obligation of marriage, it becomes an impressive duty not only to regulate the passions, but to cleanse the grosser nature from those impurities which the freedom of unrestricted pleasure may have entailed upon it. Luxurious habits will effeminize the body—a residence in the tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the premature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the natural dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the agonized sufferet more than doubts the chance of relief. To all such, then, we address ourselves, offering hype—energy—muscular strength—felicity. The easy cares of married life are sometimes disturbed by the suspension of those blessings which concentrate the nuptial wreath—for the female habit is often con stitutionally weak—yet it can be strengthened, and deficient energy im proved into functional power. In every case of syphilitic intrusion, as well as in every relaxation of the generative economy, we pledge our abi lity to cure speedily, and with effect. Confident in our own honourable ir.te. grity as members of the College of Surgeons, we refer the suffering com munity of either sex especially those entering into matrimonial life) at once to our house, where daily attendance is given for personal consulta tion ; and letters from the country are immediately answered; these must contain a remittance for Advice and Medicine, describing minutely the case, which can be forwarded to any part of the world, however distant. No difficulty can occur, as the Medicine will be securely packed, and sare fully protected from observation. GOSS and CO. (M. R. C. Surgeons), 7, Lancaster.place, Strand, London.

" I care not how I am physicked, so it be not by the adventure et a quack, but advice of a physician, who I am sure will prescribe no more for me than may consist with my safety, and need duth require."— Old Divine. The Possessor of the Prescription from which these Pills are prepared solely for him, by Mr. John T. Eddy, a scientific Chemist, obtained it from the late Dr. Armstrong, (Lecturer at St. Thomas's Hospital, London, and Author of the celebrated Works on Typhus and Scarlet Fever, &c. &c ) for his Wife, who, in 1827, became the Doctor's patient, when evidantly labouring under confirmed Liver complaint, and to all appearance in a deep decline. She had not long taken the Pills, at the prescribed inter vals, before she wa s p er f ec tl y res t ore d t o health ; and has, with the occa sional use of them, continued free from pain, and in perfect health and cheerful spirits ever since. The Possessor of this admirable Prescription (a Gentleman of private fortune), having distributed the Pills with the most extraordinary success amongst the Poor in many Counties in England, in 1835 determined to offer them, at a price, to the public; his personal observation and expe rience having convinced him that they would prove a real blessing, if taken according to the Physician's Advice and Directions in the wrapper, to all—both..old and young, children as well as adults: women, pregnant, and after the month of confinement -who suffered from an inactive Liver, and thence all the attend nt miseries of Indigestion ; Bilious Affec tions (so called) ; Flatulence, Jaundice, Dropsy; Pain in the: sides and under the Shoulder Blades; Difficulty of Breathing; distressing Sensa tion of Choking : with the complexion, and white of the eyes, yellow. The very first two pills generally atTord such relief—such ease from every distressing pain —that the patient is at once surprised and delighted. The Medicine to gentle, though certain in its benign effects. The quantity prescribed to be taken is small, and not oftener than alternate nights. In Boxes at Is. , asd 2s. Pd. each.

Weston, coal merchant, South Audley-strect E. W. Williams, grocer, Soho J. A. Moltens, printseller, Pall-mall 2 11 D. Davit, oilman, Clerkenwell In the memorial recently presented to the Secretary of State for the Home Department, by a deputation from the vestry of the parish of St. George, Hanover-square, complaining of the heavy pressure and the mode of levying the county-rate, the following detail is given of the course of pi-oceedings of the Middlesex Magistrates, on three county days of successive Quarter Sessions, on the subject of making the county-rates :---On the rota paper of the day's business appeafs—" A county-rate is to be made for the next quarter of a year," that is, from the county-day on which they assemble to the county-day in the next Quarter Session. According to the 10th section of George IV., cap. 107, the treasurer must declare " that three-fourths or more of the moneys actually received by the treasurer of the said county have been actually and duly expended." When the business of the day arrived at the point of mak ing the county-rate at each of the three Quarter Sessions, the making of the rate was deferred for several hours, be cause of the large balances in the treasurer's hands, and in one of the instances he left the Court avowedly to pay away as much money as would enable him to make the declara tion according to the Act of Parliament. The treasurer returned alter several hours, and stated that he had paid away five thousand pounds. The question was then asked of him, " Are we within the Act of Parlament ?" " Yes." " Then who moves the rate ?" And the new rate was made. CHURCH RATES.—The following is an instructive fact :—The enormous sum of a quarter of a million (252,8461.) has actually been paid by the rate-payers of Mary-la-bonne parish, under this odious rate, from the year 1811 to 1835 inclusive ; in addition to moneys borrowed amounting to 170,000/. !! ! PARIS, OCT. 25.—At eleven o'clock this forenoon the process of elevating the Luxor Obelisk commenced in the Place de la Concorde. It is yet proceeding while I write (half-past three o'clock). Before I enter upon an account of the manner in which this monument is in progress of erection, you will, I trust, permit me to take a brief notice of its origin and history . Some of the finest monolithes in Egypt are to he found among the ruins of Thebes. Before the French Govern ment became possessed of any of these monuments, four of them were still standing erect, and there were two others lying on the ground. Four obelisks (monolithes) exist amonc , the ruins of the magnificent place of the Pharaohs at Karnak. Two of these were raid in the reign of Thouthmosis 1., who lived in the year 1805 before Christ, and the other two are among the largest ever elevated by the ancient Egyptians. They were erected after the death of Thouthmosis 11. The base of the greater of these two forms a square, each side of which, at its contact with the existing soil, is 7 feet 7 inches and 6 lines (French) broad. Measured from the same point it is 73 feet 7 inches and 9 linos in height. The extremity of the base below the surface of the ground is supposed to be about 8 feet 1 inch broad. The decoration of this monoliths is different from the ornaments observable on the others. In the middle of each of its sides is a line of hieroglyphics, to the right and left of which there is; running half-way up the monument, a series of figures of divinities, to whom the King Thouthmosis is presenting offerings. Of the four obelisks above-mentioned two are still standing upright. The obeleisk now in Paris is the smaller of the two ino nolithes of red granite, discovered in front of the ruins of the palaee of Luxor. The larger of these montunents is 77 feet and six lines high, including the small pyramid which forms its termination. Its base is 7 feet 8 inches and 6 lines broad. It is calculated to weigh about 257,169 kilo grammes. The other obeleisk, now in the Place de la Concorde, is 70 feet 3 inches and 5 lines high, including the pyramid at its top, which is partly destroyed. Its greatest breath at the base is 7 feet 6 inches and 3 lines, and it is supposed to weigh about 220,528 kilogrammes. In Egypt this obelisk stood upon a pedestal, which was placed on a foundation formed of freestone. The pedestal consisted of a single block of rose-coloured granite, having its four sides decorated with sculptures, of which only some portions remain uneffaced. From an examination of the still existing parts, it appears that the northern and southern aides were orna mented with cynocephales in bas-relief, having the name of Ramises engraved on their breasts. The two other sides were likewise ornamented with bas-reliefs representing the god Nile in full length, making offerings to Ammon, the divinity of Thebes. There is a considerable fracture in this obeleisk, but the broken part is not detached from the main block. The fissure commences at the base, and extends upwards about one-third of the height of the obeleisk. This defect appears to have existed at the time of its first elevation, and the ancient Egyptians took the precaution of riveting the two parts together with pieces of sycamore wood, placed at the bettors of the base. To prevent the separation of these parts, as well as to protect the obeleisk from other injury, it was, previous to its removal from Egypt to France, enve loped in a strong wooden covering. The hieroglyphics, and the figures of men and beasts with which the Luxor obelisks were decorated, are sculptured with a precision, finish, and purity of design truly remarkable. They are arranged in three vertical lines or columns, and the figures in the middle line have a perfect polish, and are cut out 5 inches in depth. In the lateral columns the figures have been simply pricked out with the point of the instrument. The difference in the process pursued has had the effect of producing various tones and contrasts, which make the work remarkably distinct, even in its minutest details. By mak ing the depth of the hieroglyphics greater in the higher than in the lower part of the symbols, a similar effect has been attained. As it would not be convenient to enter into a detailed de scription of the figures on the obelisk at present in Paris, we will merely copy, with some slight alterations, the ac count published by M. Champollion Figeac, which is drawn up from the drawings and manuscript notes of his brother. We have already said that each side of the obelisk has sculptured on it three columns of hieroglyphics. These are arranged vertically, and contain the names of the kings by whose orders the obelisks were decorated. At the top of these columns, and below the pyramid, there is on each side a design, which has been named the bas-relief of the offer in and in which the Pharaoh, who was the donor of the obelisk, is represented offering to the god Ammon-Ra, who is sitting on his throne, vases, some filled with wine, and others with water. Below this design, and at the top of each hieroglyphic column, is the Royal ensign or banner, framed, and terminating in the lower part with a border. This banner, surmounted by a hawk, the symbol of Aroeris, contains the titles of the kings named in the inscriptions. The following is an explanation of the legends on the obe lisk at Paris, principally taken, as we have before stated, from a publication by M. Champollion Figeac. Inscriptions of Remises 11. (western side looking towards the triumphal arch of Neuilly) : Bas-relief of the offering.—Ammon-Ra is sitting on his throne ; his head is adorned with two long feathers. He holds in his right hand his ordinary sceptre, and his left hand a cross, the symbol of divine existence. Ramises 11. is on his knees before him ; his head is ornamented like the god Phthah-sokari, surmounted with the winged globe. He is making to the god Ammon-Ra the offering of two bottles of wine. The name of Ramises 11. is in front of his figure, and the legends of Ammon are between that and the head-dress of the god. The short inscription, perpendicular to his sceptre, is the title of the design, ":Gift of wine to Ammon-Ra." Middle Column :—Banner—" The powerful Areoris, the beloved of Tme and the friend of justice." Vertical Inscription :—" Lord of the Superior Region ; Lord of the Inferior Region ; Regulator of Egypt, who has punished the countries ; respendant Horns (God) support of the age, the greatest of conquerors, the King (Guardian Sun of Justice) ; ruler of rulers ; begot by Thmon in 4 ”( 4 with him, for the purpose of exercising Royal power over the world a great number of days for *** the city of Ammon (Thebes) *** ; the Son of the sun (the Cherished of Am mon living for ever.)" Eastern side (looking towards the Tuileries).—Bas-re lief of the offering. Subject analogous to that on the wes tern side ; also the wine offering. The banner likewise contains the titles of the King, and the inscription is com posed of the praise of Rarnises 11., of his name, of the titles of the respendant god, the supporter of the vigilant, and of the invocation to Ammon, the lord of gods. It also relates that the King has decorated a sanctuary consecrated to a divinity, and that he at the same time has done honour to the other gods of the same temple. .Northern side (looking towards the church of the Made leine). —Bas-relief of the offering :—The same King is making a similar offering to the God of Thebes. Tho vul ture, emblem of victory, is hovering over the King's head. The middle column of this side also refers to Ramises 11. The banner bears his royal and religious titles. The in scription gives him the titles of guardian, grand on account of his victories over the whole earth ; the visible sun, &c., and terminates with the name of the King, and the words " for ever." Inscriptions of Reamiss 111. (Sesostris).—Western side, looking towards Neuilly.--The bas-relief of the offering refers to Reamiss 11. :—Left column banner.—" The pow erful Areoris, supporter of the vigilant (or watchful)." The inscription speaks of the force and victories of Sesos tris, and of his glory over the whole earth. In the right hand column the banner designates him as the cherished of Tme (truth or justice). The inscription states that his ex ploits have made the whole world tremble. It compares him to the god Mandore, whose son he is. Southern side (looking towards the Pont de la Concorde). —This side of the obelisk, which Reamiss 11. left untouch ed, refers entirely to Reamiss 111. Bas-relief of the offering :—Sesostris, having his head adorned with the symbol of his authority over high and low Egypt, and surmounted with the winged globe of the sun, is making an offering of two vases to Ammon-Ra, the god of Thebes. The middle column adds to the praises of Sesostris, that he is the chosen son of the King of the gods, who upon his throne governs the whole world. The title of beneficent is given him in the right hand inscrip tion, which continues in the following manuer :—" Thy name is as firm as the heavens ; the duration of thy life is equal to the duration of the solar disc." In the banner of the left-hand inscription, the title of the Cherished of Ttne is given to Sesostris, in conjunction with every other very common-place eulogiums, Reamiss 111., the begotten of the King of the Gods, is announced as the possessor of the entire world. The three columns of this side uniformly terminate with the proper name of the King, the Son of the Sun (the cherished of Ammon Reamiss.) This side of the obelisk, which was in Egypt turned to wards the river, as it now is in Paris, appears to allude to this circumstance. The bas-relief, indeed, represents, ac cording to M. Lenorinant, the King making an offering to the god Ammon, not of wine, but of water; and A n non the lord of the celestial waters, seems to promise to Reamiss in exchange for this offering abundant inundations. Eastern side (looking towards the Tuileries).—The banner and the inscription of the right hand column proclaim Sesostris "to be the powerful Areoris, friend of truth or justice (Tme) ; the ruling King, amiable as Thmon, being a chief, born of Ammon, and his name being the most illustrious of all." The banner in the left hand column has the following words :—" the Aroeris, powerful son of Ammon.", The inscription gives to Sesostris the title of Diverting King, enumerates his works, and adds that he is great, by his victories, the chosen Son of the Sun, on his throne, the King (here a name is given) who de lights' Thebes, like the firmament of heaven, by his great works for ever." _ _ _ Northern side (looking towards the church of the Made leine).—The banner of the left hand column is remarkable for the great number of symbols which compose its legend, which is as follows :—" The powerful Aroeris, grand among conquerors, combatting with his strength." The inscription styles Sesostris the grand calculator, the, lord of victories, who has ruled the whole country, and who is amiable. Fi nally, the banner which surmounts the right hand inscrip tion announces that Sesostris is the strong Aroeris, power ful in his great assemblies, the friend of the world." The inscription adds, that he is " also the great chief of the Kings, like Thmon, and that the chiefs of the people of the whole earth are beneath his sandals." The intention of the legends on this side of the obelisk is to refer to the majesty and the power of the Pharaoh. Such is in general the cha racter of Egyptian inscriptions, the language of which, al most exclusively laudatory or religious, seldom if ever re fers, and then only incidentally, to any fact from which his tory can derive any advantage. To get the obelisk on board the vessel, which was built expressly to carry it to France, it was necessary to cut through two hills formed by the accumulated earth of ages, and to knock down all the houses of a village which lay in the way. An extent of 372 metres of ground had to be partly cut out and partly filled in ; and 800 men were oc cupied with this work for three months. The operation of lowering the obelisk, and conveying it on board the Lougsor was tuperintended by M. Lebas, to whose care the elevation of the monument in the Place de la Concorde has been entrusted. The Lougsor, which left Toulon in March, 1831, reached its destination in Egypt on the 15th of August in the same year. and on the 19th of December following the obelisk was placed on board that vessel. It was not before the 23d December, 1833, that the monolithe reached Paris. The obelisk itself is, in appearance, a most unsightly specimen of the barbarous ; but it is not half so startling for its absurdity, as the notion of setting it upon its present site. Many of your readers will recollect that from the Pa lace of the Tuileries to the Barriere de l'Etoile there was a beautifully extensive, perfect, and uninterrupted view. Europe had few, if any, finer sights to show of a similar kind. That vista no longer exists, though the completion of that magni ficent and gigantic work of art, the triumphal arch, seemed to furnish an additional reason for preserving it. It is ob structed by the ugly, grotesque, and disfiguring obelisk, which will this day have been raised in the middle of the Place de la Concorde—exactly on the spot where the guil lotine of the first French Revolution did its bloody work upon Louis XVI., his ill-fated Queen Marie Antoinette, the Princess Elizabeth, the father of the present King of the French, and thousands of innocent and unoffending men and women, whom the singe-tigres of that accursed time slaughtered, as it would seem, in mere wantonness, and who, in just retribution, almost to a man, paid on the same spot, the penalty of their crimes. Many have been the names which this grand space has received at various times. It has been called the Place Louis XV., the Place de la Revolution, the Place de la Concorde, and the Place Louis XVI. Perhaps Aceldenta would have been the best. However, for the obelisk, it is not a little remarkable that all the splendid plans which have been presented for the embellishment of this Place from time to time have been thrown aside in favour of the unsightly monstrosity that now disfigures it. But it is perhaps unfair to criticise this proceeding : too closely. The truth is that this Luxor obelisk, the preyarations for its erection, and its actual erec tion have been and are part and parcel of the many play things with which Louis Philippe endeavours to amuse La Jenne France in order to keep it out of mischief. I believe that if he proposed to stick a bronze monkey on the top of it, with a cannon ball in its mouth, and a tricoloured flag tied to its tail, La Jenne France would fall in with the pro ject, and be too much occupied with it to think of making a revolution till the image was completed ; while, I am sure, all sensible men in France would entertain the same opinion of such an addition to the obelisk as they never hesitate to express of the obelisk itself. On reaching the Place de la Concorde this forenoon, I found it crowded with troops and spectators, and the opera tion on the point of commencing. The obelisk was raised by the means which M. Lebas adopted in Egypt to lower it. On each side of the base of the monument five strong masts were placed, rising into the air in a slightly inclined position. The upper extremities of the whole of these masts were connected together by one strong beam of timber, to which a great number of cables were attached. These cables were wound round the top part of the obelisk, and served to support the ponderous mass in the process of elevation. The lower ends of the masts were firmly fitted upon a cylindrical piece of wood— an arrangement which allowed their original position, which was southwards, to be changed by the aid of another set of cables and capstans to a northern direction. An idea of this operation may be conceived by supposing two poles in the following position : one lying along the ground, and the other standing upright against one of the ends of the first pole. If the further extremities of these two poles are con nected together by a rope, and the upright pole is gradually lowered in an opposite direction, the other pole will, of course, rise in the same proportion, until it reaches a per pendicular position. This is precisely the nature of the operation, by which the Luxor obelisk was raised. Precau tions were taken, by means of ropes, to prevent any further movement of the monument, after attaining a perpendicular position on the pedestal. The operation occupied three hours and 25 minutes. As soon as the pillar had been made to assume its perpendicular position on its pedestal, an attempt was made to induce the people to applaud, and by no one more than by Louis Phi lippe, who clapped his hands most vigorously. Some hun dreds in his immediate vicinity cheered, but the immense crowd that filled the Place de la Concorde and the gardens of the Tuileries were silent, either because they were wearied with the tedious and uninteresting exhibition, or (which is most likely) because they did not like the look of the thing. There was pretty general applause, however, when six of the sailors who had been employed in rigging the machinery by which the obelisk had been raised mounted by means of a rope ladder to its summit, and fixed there two tricoloured flags and some branches of laurel. The Paris cockneys, who are not so much accustomed as those of London are to see sailors climb, appeared to be much struck by this feat. The King and the Royal family, who witnessed the whole operation from the Hotel de la Marine, were exceedingly well received on their arrival and at their departure. CORONER'S INQUEST.—Yesterday afternoon an adjourned inquisition was taken before Mr. Stirling, at the Albion, Maiden-lane, Battle-bridge, to inquire touching the death of Thomas Lee, a jobbing coalheaver, who was drowned in the Regent's-canal, near the above public-house. On account of the suspicious circumstances connected with the death of the deceased, a young man of the name of into custody. Dyke, who was last in his company, was taken custody. Police-constable William Millerhap , N 16, in consequence of information, took Dyke into custody, who stated that he left the White Hart on Sunday week, about twelve o'clock at night, in company with the deceased, who was going to sleep in a barge which was on the canal. They were both the worse for liquor. When they got on board, he (Dyke) heard something fal into the water, and presently after he missed the deceased. He then went to the captain, who was asleep in a barge , to whom, in about twenty minutes' time, he related the accident, when th e y agreed that as the deceased had been so long in the wat er he must be dead, and that it was no use to disturb the in habitants. They then let him remai , n , there till th e morning. Verdict—" Found Drowned."

WORCESTER, OCT. 25.—A ~eeting was held terday, which, in point of numbers and import& passes any that has taken place throughout the . since the recess, and throws the vaunted assemblag the Tories completely into the back ground. The 1111 1 4 a. of Worcester having been applied to, most readily granied the use of the Guildhall, and the dinner took place yester day. So numerous were the applications for tickets, that notwithstanding fifteen hundred were disposed of, five hun dred more could have been sold, had there been any place sufficiently extensive to contain so large an assemblage. The Chairman, at the close of the meeting, stated that 1,500 tickets had been sold by the Committee of Management, and could they have obtained a place where 2,000 could have dined, that number would have attended. Ho was saying that to which he pledged himself for the truth, as he knew that hundreds of applications were made for tickets, which it was impossible, from the foregoing cause, to supply. At two o'clock, about 750 sat down to dinner in a large room immediately over the hall, and as many more dined in various inns throughout the city. Previous to the din ner, the company met in Trafalgar-square, and marched in procession to the ball, preceded by a band of music, and a banner upon which was written " Re-action." After the company had thus dined, the whole of them ad journed to the large hall, which was fitted up for the occa sion, and the Crown and Nisi Prius Courts were boarded over, to afford additional accommodation. Numerous flags and banners were hung in various parts of the hall, bearing the following inscriptions—" Reaction !"—" King and the People."—" Purity of Election."--" Glorious Reaction." —" Reform the Lords and Vote by Ballot."—" Prosperity to the City of Worcester."--" Rally round Trade."— " Magna Charta."—" Liberty the Birthright of Man, a Nation's Safeguard."—" Liberty of the Press," &c. &c. The Chair was taken shortly after four o'clock by Mr. Ar rowsmith, an operative ; and amongst the visitors on the right and left were—Mr. Robinson, M.P. ; the Mayor of Worcester ; Colonel Davies, late M.P. for the city ; Cap tain Winnington, M.P. ; T. H. Cookes, Esq., M.P. ; Edward Holland, Esq., M.P. ; Sir Edward Blount, Bart., J.P. ; Hon. Captain Southwell ; C. Hanford, Esq., J.P. W. Acton, Esq., J.P. ; Aston Blount, Esq. ; R. Berke ley, Esq., J.P. ; George Munn, Esq., J.P. ; W. Barring ton, Esq., J.P. ; Thomas Hornyold, Esq., J.P. ; T. Gibbs, Esq., J.P. ; T. Stevenson, Esq., J.P. ; A. Skay, Esq., J.P. ; Rev. Messrs. Pearson, Smith, &c. &c. As soon as the company had assembled, the CHAIRMAN addressed them as follows :—Gentlemen, we are assembled to refute and contradict a report which has been circulat e d that a reaction in favour of Toryism has taken place in the city of Worcester, and especially among the operatives. —(Cheers.) Never, probably, did the deep-laid stratagems and the determined efforts of any party meet with a more signal defeat, or the falsehood of such a report, so indus triously disseminated, recoil with greater force upon the heads of the originators, than on tte present occasion.— (Loud cheers.) A reaction I 0, I thank them for that word! How often has that cry resounded from the camp of Toryism, and how often has it met with a triumphant refutation !—(Cheers.) And now that we are assembled for the purpose of defending ourselves against the libel which has gone forth, let the weapons of our warfare be not hard words, which we have no need of, and can well spare them for those who have latterly in this city too often familiarised themselves with the coarsest of the kind from the declaimer's vocabulary ; but let our weapons be hard argument, and in this telling ammunition and inflexible evidence we are not wanting.—(Cheers.) Here it is plain and incontrovertible and uncontradictory before us. If lam asked to produce it, 1,500 voices are ready to answer, and in a manner which cannot fail to be well understood, and must paralyse the strongest Con servative nerve.—(Loud cheers.) Here we are fully pre pared for the contest whenever an opportunity arrives to place us in battle array. I will now proceed to the second object, viz., that of producing in all Reformers of every grade who have this day assembled among us a union—l will not say a complete union of sentiment and of opinion for that cannot be expected ;—but a union of effort and co-operation in the great and in the good cause of search ing and efficient reform.—(Cheers.) We have too long borne, and too justly deserved, the reproach cast against us by our opponents, that the Reformers cannot agree among themselves. We now universally admit the error ; but what is still better, because it is now to the purpose, we are taking wise precautions to prevent its recurrence. The Conservatives have set us an example in this respect which we cannot fail to admire, and if our admiration should but lead us to its adoption, the benefits would soon become ap parent. With them where do you hear of their quarrels about politics among themselves ? Why, look at their readi ness to yield on any given point of minor consideration ra ther than to sow discord and dissention. No sooner does their leader, Sir Robert Peel, deem it expedient to pro fess himself a " Moderate Reformer," than it is re-echoed ----- - through all their ranks, and he who yesterday declared that there was nothing connected with the Church and State that required the careful hand. of the skilful gardener to prune, or to remove the exuberant foliage, which, while it might adorn the exterior, added not to the strength or stability of the trunk, but rather endangered its very exis tence, is now ready to allow, that whatever proved abuses exist, or whatever evils can be clearly demonstrated, he is willing should be removed. Wonderfully accommodating truly ! Here is a specimen of dexterity. In the spirit of forbearance and cordial co-operation, Jet us then unite wherever it can be done, without a comprotoise of principle ; and while on minor topics we agree to disagree, let us merge our little differences, and scatter them to the winds, while we fight our common enemy, and thus promote the cause we hold so dear ; and then let it be Mr. Robinson and Colonel Davies, one or both. This lam bold to pre dict, that for the future we shall send up as our representa tives for the City of Worcester two Reformers, " touch them who can."—(Loud cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then proposed as the first toast,. " The King ; may he ever remember that his best interests are identified with the happiness of the people."—(Cheers.) The next toast was—" The Queen ; may her influence ever be exerted for the public good."—(Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then proposed—" The People, the only source of legitimate power."—(Drunk with immense ap- plause.) The following toasts ware then given :—" The Princess Victoria"—" The Duke of Sussex and the liberal branches of the Royal Family"—" His Majesty's Ministers, and may they succeed in removing the evils produced by former Tory, or self-servative, Governments." Upon the health of the Mayor of Worcester being given, The MAYOR returned thanks in an appropriate address. The CHAIRMAN having proposed the healths of Mr. Ro binson and Colonel Davies, Mr. ROBINSON returned thanks. He said, Mr. Chair man and Gentlemen, the first impulse on my mind is that of exultation upon the glorious refutation which the city of Worcester have given to the assertions that have been made here and elsewhere, that a re-action has taken place among the operative classes.—(Cheers.) The next feel ing is that of satisfaction, as that meeting affords me a convincing proof that no difference of feeling or opinion upon minor points will lead to a disunion among Re formers. There is a third feeling upon my mind, that of gratification at witnessing this display, and the flattering manner in which such a vast majority of the citiiens of Worcester have done me the honour to receive my name, as it realizes a cherished hope and an earnest wish that there has been nothing in my political conduct to forfeit the confidence reposed in me by my constituents.—(Cheers.) The Hon. Gentleman then said, that he would tell them in a few short sentences what his political creed was. Ha was the advocate for perfect liberty, and equal civil rights for every class of the community, without reference to their religious opinions, and he considered that the interests and happiness of the many should be consulted in preference to the interests of the few.—(Cheers.) He had been a con sistent supporter of Lord Grey's reform in the House of Commons—he had supported, and ever would support, the restitution of Triennial Parliaments. It was not an infrac tion of, but a return to, the old and Constitutional system of Government. He had ever reproba,ted the practice of flogging in the army, and strenuously ex e . rted himself to abolish it.--(Cheers.) Every one of the opetlatives among his constituency knew well the repeated attempils ho had made in the Legislature to remove the burthens which pressed upon the productive classes, by endeavouring to procure an equalization of taxation.—(Cheers.) Neither his habits nor education, qualified him to discuss questions of law ; but he had always considered it his duty to sup port the removal of that which he deemed a disgrace to the criminal code—capital punishment. He had ever en deavoured to throw round the helpless the protection of Parliament, and had advocated and supported every mea sure introduced for the protection of infant labour.— (Cheers.) The Hon. Gentleman then named some of tins measures which he had opposed, and explained his reasons for having so done. He contended for perfect indepen dence of conduct, and perfect freedom in his legislative ca pacity. When the Government of Lord Melbourne, in 1834, brought forward a measure—certainly of great im portance and much difficulty—the Poor Law Bill—the Go vernment was entitled to great credit for their intentions. He had opposed the Poor Law Bill, because he considered it an impolitic measure, and thought that the Government ought to have instituted a more searching inquiry into the condition of the poor throughout the country. But let it not be supposed that because he refused to support the Poor Law Bine without previous inquiry, that he intended any hostility to the Government or to the law itself. On the contrary, since the law had passed, he had endeavoured to reason its working, and if experience proved it to be a good and salutary measure he should be prepared to be- MR.
